What dooth God require in the first commaundement?

That, as dearlie as I tender the saluation of my own soul, so earnestlie should I shun & flie all Idolatry, sorcery, enchantmēts,a superstitiō, praying to Saints, or anie otherb creatures: & should rightlyc acknowledge the only & true god,d trust in him alone,e submit & subiect my self vnto him with alf humility & patience,g look for all good things from him alone, and lastly with the entire affection of my harth loue,i reuerence, &j worship him: so that I am ready to renounce and forsake al creatures rather, thā tok commit the least thing that may be against his wil.l
